Many people know who Charles Xavier aka Professor X is. A man who is a figurehead for the mutant community, setting up a school for the gifted for those young pupils to hone and craft their powers in order to use them for good whilst also protecting them from the prejudice outside world.Along with being a father figure at the school, for both students and teachers (who consist of Cyclops, Storm and even Wolverine) he is also probably the worlds most powerful telepathic. He can access the minds of anyone (excluding Magneto when he wears his custom-made helmet) he can cage dark personalities within someone (the Phoenix in Jean Gray for example) whilst he can pick out your darkest secrets if he wanted to.
Since he is all so powerful, many people wonder why he is in a wheelchair since he wasn't born that way and he doesn't suffer from any debilitating illnesses. Most people, who have either read the comics or seen the film, know that Professor X was unfortunately paralysed by another. Many people believe that it was either at the hands of Magneto ( was is depicted in X-Men First Class) or by the mammoth Juggernaut. But this is not the case.According to the main continuity line that Marvel uses, Professor Charles Xavier was actually paralysed by an alien scout named Lucifer who dropped a giant stone onto the Professor which caused Charles' legs to be crippled. Seems a bit odd that one it wasn't one of the main characters we here of when reading a comic with any involvement of the X-Men but hey-ho.
Thank you for reading guys and girls, come back tomorrow for another issue of Comic Trivia Of The Day
